Unit 3 Post

Hey Guys,
So we were asked to rate our physical well-being, spiritual well-being, and psychological well-being on a scale from 1-10 with ten being pretty perfect.  I would rate my physical well-being probably at a 6.  I would like to be more active, however I have a hard time finding the time to be able to do so.  I have a 1 1/2 year old who keeps me pretty busy.  Although we do a lot of things during the day, I would like it if I could get my heart rate up higher for longer periods of time.  For spiritual well-being, I would say I'm at a 7.  I have goals that I want to do with my life, and I feel as though I am constantly working to better myself.  I also always want to understand what is going on around me.  As far as psychological wellness goes, I'd rate that at a 6 or 7 as well.  My life has been pretty stressful due to the fact that my husband is currently deployed, and my grandfather's recent passing.
Goals that I would like to set up for myself physically would be to just try to make more time to be more physically active.  I could do this by going to for a jog with a stroller during a nap time each day.  Spiritually, I would like try to not be so negative about things, and try to see from different point of views.  I can do this by being more open and receptive to other people's thoughts.  Psychologically, I would like to find a better outlet for my frustration due to my husband being gone.  I'm thinking going to a run everyday, or as often as I can, may be a good outlet.
As far as the relaxation exercise goes, I thought it was kind of nice.  I really felt a few of the emotions that the voice was describing.  I felt grounded, loved, and loving.  Towards the end I was getting a little bored with it, however I did feel energized and ready to start my day.
Thanks for reading :)
